No. Handguns are illegal to own in Chicago. If you had a permit to carry a concealed weapon (when it was legal) and you're still carrying it in your wallet, it's indicative that you did not turn in your handgun when handguns were outlawed. So the police officers will follow you to your house and force you to turn in your handgun.

Shotguns are still legal, as long as they're not sawed off.

We had a friend who was pulled over for speeding, and while looking for his driver's license the police officer caught sight of his concealed carry permit. So they took him to his house, searched his house, and took his nine millimeter handgun.

I should add that shotguns are not practical for home protection purposes.
